Reflections: Aeris Gainsborough
Fanfiction by Jessie
- He was the first thing I ever saw in Holy.
- I was a child, just learning how to see,
- and he shone so brightly, in my heart
- I named him Hoshi-no-niisan, brother of the stars.
- I saw him many times after that, strong and brave
- and beautiful in the heart of Holy;
- I told the silent image all my secrets,
- and he became my brother, my friend, my hero.
- I set myself to become like him,
- strong and brave, so I would be worthy to meet him.
It is some wonder I didn't recognize him at first.- This brave soldier, my Hoshi-no-niisan.
- And I have seen him in his strength, sometimes,
- not that he'll ever admit it to himself.
- My hero, my brother, my childhood friend...
- I swore, I'd yet make him worthy of himself.
I tried to protect him from his other half.- I knew none of them were ready to face Jenova.
- He reached me just before Sephiroth,
- already falling prey to the dark man's influence.
- He would have killed me if Sephiroth hadn't done it first...
And I pray to the Breath of the Earth that my brother is okay.
